DIAMOND SHOWGIRL CF was due on May 24th, but was ready to rock our world on May 21^st. She was up and nursing in 25 minutes and has been going strong ever since. She is friendly, inquisitive and delightful. Her conformation is just phenomenal for such a young sprite. She is an embryo transfer foal and a very tolerant AQHA mare, Vanessa, delivered her and is mothering her well.

Diamond Showgirl is by the Elite Danish Stallion, Diamond. He stands at Horizon Farms and is owned by Meryl and Richard Cannon in Illinois.

Her dam is a top Kirov Trakehner mare named Oshoga. She is by Orech (by Hockey) out of an Almanach I mare. Oshoga is approved with the DV and is a DH mare. Diamond actually carries a high percentage of Kirov blood, Abglanz/Termit on both the sire and dam lines and Donouwind/Pregel. It will be a journey to watch this future athlete develop.

We are thankful to Palle and Irma Thisted for passing the torch of these wonderful broodmares, the foundation of our breeding program.

DIAMOND MARQUIS CF was due on June 11th. She is a full sibling to diamond showgirl, the embryo transfer filly carried by Vanessa, Marquis was carried by her natural mother, Oshoga, Thinking that we were in for a long haul foal watch with Oshoga, Art insisted that we needed better sleeping cots for the barn, Carson and I left for WalMart around 9pm on June 5th.

Around 11pm we were making our “beds” and Oshoga started walking the foaling paddock fence. A front of bad thunderstomrs were rolling in. I know she didn’t want to be outside, so I brought her in. Just before 2AM, I heard her water break and rushed around to her stall door just in time to see the lovely bay filly arrive, just like her full sibling, Showgirl, she was up and nursing in no tome,

The similarity in the conformation of the fillies is amazing, even with the foreknowledge that they do have the same sire and dam, as always, predicting the color was fun, this fine filly is a as sweet as pie and now enjoys her days with her playmate, showgirl and their moms.
